Nuance and Intelerad Partner to Bring Voice-Enabled Radiology
Reporting to Community Hospitals and Imaging Centers
Speech Recognition Considered a New Service Standard to Help Radiologists
Decrease Report Turnaround Time
BURLINGTON, Mass., and DENVER, CO – November 13, 2012 – Today, Nuance
Communications, Inc. and Intelerad Medical Systems™ announced a reseller agreement by
which Intelerad® will now offer the benefits of Nuance’s proven voice-enabled radiology
offering, Powerscribe 360 | Reporting, alongside their medical imaging solutions. According to
recent findings, incorporating speech recognition into a radiologists’ workflow is a new service
benchmark that can significantly decrease report turnaround times and improve services to
referring physicians.
Community hospitals and imaging centers face the same pressures as large hospitals for fast,
efficient and accurate reporting of patient results, but with more limited IT resources. Nuance’s
voice-enabled radiology reporting helps address these industry challenges by creating higherquality documentation and exam interpretations, while improving report turnaround times. This
reseller partnership will enable Intelerad’s more than 1,000 imaging center and community
hospital customer sites to deploy speech recognition in an effort to establish best practices for
reading and reporting patient imaging results.
“Nuance is the market leader in voice-enabled radiology reporting,” said Randall Oka, chief
executive officer, Intelerad. “This partnership will benefit imaging centers and community
hospitals by identifying ways to streamline workflow and improve productivity. We’re excited
about the competitive advantage this partnership presents for our customers.”
Through this partnership, Intelerad customers can now take advantage of the same speech
technology that is already used to create nearly half of all radiology exams in the U.S. By
leveraging Nuance’s PowerScribe 360 platform together with Intelerad’s solutions, radiologists
can take a smarter, faster approach to reporting. Intelerad’s solutions include the #1 ranked
ambulatory PACS by KLAS five years in a row – IntelePACS®, InteleRIS™, InteleOne® and
the recently launched Flow™ Enterprise Diagnostics Solution.
“Today, radiologists face unprecedented scrutiny and competition so technology is often times a
factor that differentiates practices,” said Janet Dillione, executive vice president and general
manager, Nuance Healthcare. “We are excited to partner with Intelerad because of the important
role it plays in the medical imaging market. Together, we’ll build upon our shared commitment
to arm radiologists with the tools they need to adjust to changing workplace dynamics.”
